You don't need to change any variables. You just want to change what the screen says..
Try this:

Hi,
thank you very much for your answer!
I tried this in the component/k2/templates/ all templates i have/item.php folder and also in the
/templates/mytemplate/html/k2/templates/all templates i have/item.php
I changed the original code to this:
<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemCategory')): ?>
<!-- Item category name -->
<div class="itemCategory">
<span><?php echo 'Back to category: '; ?></span>
<a href="<?php echo $this->item->category->link; ?>"><?php echo $this->item->category->name; ?></a>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
but the change is not seen :(
I cleaned the cache and everything, but still the old text remains :((

If you are not seeing it follow these steps:
1. Make sure your category is using the template you changed
2. Make sure you are on the ITEM page. (Sorry to sound so basic) - Click on the item to see only that item on the page to ensure you are on the item.php
Hope this helps.

Hi,
okay I succesfully changed the standard "Published in " category text to "Back to " category.
The last thing is that I would like to have this text directly after the item title, before the introtext starts, but can't get it to work there...
I tried to add it here:But it doesn't show up.
Where should I exactly place it?
Thank you so much for your help!
